BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Wednesday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Wednesday there were 3947 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3332 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2031 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net sell volume on Wednesday and lowest negative price Friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. Broadleaf Capital Partners Inc (OTC:BDLF), BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION (NYSE:BAC), Sprint Nextel Corp (NYSE:S), KeyCorp (NYSE:KEY), Alcatel Lucent SA (NYSE:ALU), Amarantus BioSciences Inc (OTC:AMBS).

That means that it takes 4,757,522 more shares of selling than buying to drop BDLF by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
